Since I started my subscription to the Sentinel, I have realized how important that newspapers are, both in the big city and Knox County. Although the title does not show this, the commentary itself does.
I recommend that you raise the advertising and subscription prices to hire a full time employee. I have the idea that there will be a Wednesday morning when there is a notice that there will be no Sentinel until further notice because one or both of you are in the hospital for exhaustion.
In “Democracy in America,” Alexis de Tocqueville examines the role of the free press in American democracy. Newspapers both provide information for the people and are constitutive of the people themselves. “It would diminish [newspapers’] importance to believe that they serve only to guarantee freedom; they maintain civilization.”
See you in October,
